My triumvirate of statistical achievement in the fields of war profiteering, interpretative gynecology and ice sculpture has often drawn comparisons to the great Oscar Robertson.
So it is with a special reverence that I came across Hooped Up’s birthday wish to the Big O, which not only celebrates his triple-double sophomore campaign of 1961-62 (he averaged 30.8 points, 12.5 rebounds and 11.4 assists per game) but also includes this here video set to Smooth Operator by Sade, who coincidentally is quite the war profiteer herself.
Small world.
UPDATE: NBA.com is celebrating Oscar’s 70th birthday too. (via TrueHoop)
